I'm Baaaaack!

So I just got back from a little vacation with my friends and am re inspired to blog after my little hiatus. While being gone I have seen so many trends coming for fall that I can't wait to share. I have been reading all of the September issues...it's like Christmas in September. Today I will start with the collar necklace.  This is a strong and glamorous look.  I can't wait for fall!!

Italian girl - Giada de Laurentiis

I know this doesn't have to do with fashion but I like to share some great food ideas from time to time as well!  Check out Giada de laurentiis' new revamped website here.

I made this fun little pizza appetizer for my girls night last weekend. Thanks to Giada, it was a hit!


All you need to make this is:
-Pizza crust
-Gorgonzola cheese
-Cherry Tomatoes
-Some greens

Just pop it in the oven for 10 minutes and you get a great snack to share!  I added some pepper flakes for some kick since I love spice. She uses a cookie cutter to make small circle pizzas but I just stuck to squares.


Here are her cook books:

Burgundy-Red Beauty

After being in search of clothes this color last year and not being able to find a thing, I am happy to say burgundy has arrived for fall 2011.  I love this deep wine color and how it looks great on many skin tones.  I have seen this shade in all types of apparel and accessories for fall.  Try out the leather look and hit two trends in one.   

Here are some runway looks from the fall shows:












Here are some great new fall burgundy finds at shopbop to help get you started:
